Don't Miss The Opportunity To See A Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR Replica
by AutoExpert | 24 July, 2023
Introducing an extraordinary find: an exquisite replica of the legendary Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR Straßenversion! Hailing all the way from the vibrant city of Johannesburg in South Africa, we have the mastermind behind this extraordinary creation—none other than the talented Johan Ackermann!
The Mercedes-Benz E-Class W210 served as the foundation for the radical transformation into the ELK GTR project. Meanwhile, the CLK C208 was used for the roof and pillars.
In order to undergo its magnificent transformation, the process demanded a custom-made front clamshell with a sleek and aerodynamic low nose. With its bold and aggressive design, the car boasts protruding bumpers, wider side sills, and shoulders that give it a fierce racecar stance. And let's not forget about those stunning multi-spoke alloy wheels that add an extra touch of style and performance.
Like a timeless symphony, the headlights and taillights gracefully made their way from the original E-Class. Meanwhile, the dashboard, seats, and door panels gracefully emerge from the SLK roadster. The designer claims the project took five months to complete because he handled all of the fabrication himself and had extra help with the work and painting.
When it comes to the powertrain, the mastermind is all about keeping it real with the Mercedes-AMG V12. The only thing to do now is wait and see. We're excited to see this monster completed!
